Dead Can Dance Voyage Of Bran Lyrics

Father father Can you tell me Where the hours go Where time flows ? It is written in the stars Upon the milky way That we must burn bright Before we fade away ?

Mother mother Can you tell me Where the fire goes When the flames cease ? 'From the ashes to the astral plain Where the setting sun meets the sea, Brendan'

I live by the river Where the old gods still dream Of inner communion With the open sea
Through the eye of the hunter In search of a prey Neither beast nor human In my philosophy

If you don't recognise me Well it's simply because I've outgrown these old clothes Time to move on

For you and I will outlive The masks life gave us When this shadowplay comes To a close
